WAYS TO STRUCTURE A COMMENTARY (SCROLL DOWN, yo)
A:                                                         TENSION (effect should discuss tension's meaning)
                                                      /                           \
                                  Force A (what techniques)     Force B (what techniques)




B:  TECHNIQUE + TECHNIQUE + TECHNIQUE (the effect of all techniques should be the same)




C:                                                       SHIFT(S) (effect should discuss meaning of shift/change)
                                                             /         \
                            BEFORE (techniques)     AFTER (techniques)
